With her three small children, she arrives at a Chicago hotel for her 15th high school reunion weekend and, when she glances away for a moment, her three year-old son disappears in the middle of a crowded lobby. Despite a desperate search, he vanishes without a trace.

With the help of a tenacious police detective, they unravel a tangled web leading to a reunion which, in turn, raises another emotionally wrenching dilemma. The boy has no memory of his biological family, having been raised by a loving, adoptive father. What should they do?
